Here’s a preview of tonight’s episode.

Last week’s Work Out featured a clash of the lesbian families as Jackie’s girlfriend’s mom met her own mom in an episode presumably sponsored by PFLAG to teach us all a Very Valuable Lesson about parental love. Meanwhile, Greg-with-one-G and Renessa’s zero-body-fat romance continued to blossom and the whole gang went to see Greg-with-two-Gs band play.

For this week’s column, Jasmine is off in the middle of Appalachia for a womyn’s music festival. However, Sam managed to step out of her wood shop for a spell to answer some broader questions about Work Out and lesbian lifestyles in general.

Taking a step back, what do you think of this season of Work Out thus far? Has the dynamic changed?

Sam: I’m enjoying it so far, could use more drama and hook-ups of course. I feel like they are leading up to it and it will blow up soon enough (sneak peek for this week looks like lesbian drama goodness). The only hook-ups in this season have been heterosexual, I need some gay drama. Its bravo afterall, recognize your audience.

What do you think about other shows on Bravo, like Project Runway? These seem to be targeted toward the delicate sensibilities of gay men.

Sam: I actually enjoy almost all Bravo shows. I watch Top Chef and Project Runway. I’ve never, repeat, never watched that step it up and dance show. And you can’t make me. Okay, as for the delicate sensibilities of gay men, yeah, they are. I’ll just sit here and think of all the women that are on these shows to help get me through the day. Oh Padma…

How far do you think you could throw a shot putt?

Sam: Further than you gay boy. Further than you.

Are you sure you’re a lesbian? Maybe you just haven’t met the right man. Rebecca seemed to go back and forth on Work Out.

Sam: You know, you may be on to something. You are probably right, I probably just need to find the right man. Just like you need to find the right girl. As for Rebecca, she isn’t lesbian, she just likes sex. Just like Renessa.

Who is your favorite TV lesbian of all time?

Sam: Hmmm…need to think about this one….I do pray every night that Padma will confess her undying love for me. But as for actually tv lesbians my all time favorite would have to be Dr. Kim Legaspi (Elizabeth Mitchell) from ER. She was hot then and shes hot now on Lost, only straight, but I can still pretend. My fantasy dammit.
